Description : Hand washing with soap remains the single most and cost-effective way of prevention of diseases which include diarrhoea. Malawi has over the past years championed improved sanitation and hygiene which includes hand washing with soap at all critical times. Through the WASH programme UNICEF has supported the Government of Malawi implement the Open defecation (2010-2015) strategy and hand washing with soap (2011-2016) strategies to raise awareness and increase uptake of hygiene and sanitation in the country. According to the Malawi Demographic and Health Survey 2015-2016, 52% of Malawians have adopted improved sanitation while 31% of the population use facilities that would've been considered improved if it were not for sharing while 6% are still practising open defecation.

To promote the adoption of hand washing with soap, UNICEF supported the Malawi Government with the National Hand Washing Campaign which hinged on social marketing approach to improve adoption of hand washing practice. The campaign targets school children, mothers and care-givers. The key strategies to achieve intended behaviour changes in the targeted population include, to:



Develop and disseminate key messages through mass media,

Integrate HWWS promotion in CLTS,

Use social marketing and participatory approaches such as Participatory Hygiene and Sanitation Transformation (PHAST),

Ensure availability of hand washing facilities

Engaging school children as agents of change
